Issues w/ Hibernate Tools in Eclipse 3.5 Galileo on Mac

I am having a lot of problems with Hibernate tools in Eclipse Galileo on Mac. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing problems as well.

My problems are (Note: These issues were not present when using Eclipse 3.4 on Mac.):

- for a composite-id, using a static inner class, the Hibernate Configuration -> Session Factory says the class is not found
https://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=999852

- custom UserTypes are not found for properties via the Hibernate Configuration -> Session Factory

Code:

org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: com.project.hib.types.AlertTypeEnum, for columns: [org.hibernate.mapping.Column(alert_type)]

I am using JDK 1.6 for compilation/execution but the Eclipse IDE is executing with JDK 1.5.
Hibernate Core is 3.3.2GA

Any ideas?

Thanks

What version of Hibernate tools are you using in the two scenarios ?

I have set the update site to http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/up ... tly/trunk/

From "What is already installed"

Hibernate Tools
org.hibernate.eclipse.feature.feature.group
3.3.0.v200909220047N-H103-M4

Let me know if you need anything else.

Note: I backed off to JDK 1.5 and everything is working fine now. While not acceptable as we are using 1.6 third party libraries, it is a work around to at least get Hibernate tools working for our needs at the moment.

Thanks

Are you running Eclipse with Java 6 ?

This could be caused by running Eclipse with Java 5 but trying to load classes that is compiled with Java 6!?

I was running Eclipse in JDK 1.5 but had set my project properties to compile and run in 1.6. We have to have the project set to 1.6 as we are using third party binaries that have been compiled in 1.6. When running our app, we have had no problems with Hibernate. The only issue we had was executing Hibernate Tools.

The issue then makes sense if Hibernate Tools is running in 1.5 but we have code compiled in 1.6. Is there a way to have the tools execute in 1.6?

On the Mac, Eclipse (Cocoa) cannot run under JDK 1.5 due to SWT 1.5 limitation.

yes, just run Eclipse with Java 6 and not Java 5.

I would if I could...but it is well documented that Eclipse cannot run under 1.6.

However, I do have a work around that will require a complete build when I switch between 1.5/1.6 depending upon what I need.
